Make non ActiveX DLL ?

Dev
Hello,

We have (old) softwares that can only use non ActiveX DLLs. They are written
in C today.
I want to write the new DLLs with VB.NET, but they still have to be used
with these old softs.

Is it possible to make a non-ActiveX DLL with VB.NET ?
If yes, how ?
How can I test it ? is it possible to test it with VB6 ?

Thank you,

FRB

Hi Dev,

AFAIK it is not possible with VB.NET.
However, it is possible with VC.NET (not C#)
